How to Install Browser on Sharp Android/Google TV?

- Visit the app store on your respective Sharp TV. Search for a compatible browser and install it. Launch the app and use the virtual keyboard to surf through the internet.

Note: Some TV remotes may be incompatible with browsers. In such cases, you can connect and use external devices like a keyboard and mouse.
- If you wish to install a third-party browser on your Sharp Android/Google TV, then you can sideload it. To sideload the browser, you must get the Downloader for TV app on your TV. Within this sideloader app, enter the APK URL and download the APK file. Then, install the browser and access it.
Can You Access Web Browser on Sharp Roku TV?
The only way to access the browser is to screen mirroring to Sharp TV with Roku OS. That’s because the Roku Channel Store does not contain any official browsing apps, and you can’t sideload a browser on Sharp Roku TV. But the relief is that you can screen mirror from smartphones and PCs of different platforms (Android, iOS, Mac, Windows). Make sure to connect both participating devices to the same WiFi during the process.
You can get access to the best browsers on your Sharp TV by following the above methods. With that, you need not get up from your couch to get your mobile and search for what you need on the internet.
